Why can't I order Fortagen to Canada?Updated 4 months ago

Unfortunately, we are unable to ship Fortagen to Canada at this time. The problem is that L-tryptophan (one of the Essential Amino Acids your body requires and found in Fortagen) seems to be a restricted substance in Canada (listed in Schedule F of Canada's Food and Drug Regulations).

Therefore, Fortagen appears to be viewed as a pharmaceutical that may require a doctor's prescription or other special licensing. Canada appears to be enforcing these restrictions through customs inspections, and we have recently had numerous Fortagen shipments rejected and returned to the US. 

We hope that changes will be made so we can offer Fortagen in Canada again.
